All parts of the game are a massive step back from what's already been done, apart from the ship builder. 20yrs ago Freelancer came out and that game has better space travel and combat (complete with the tracking reticule ahead of the enemy ships). As you said, Mass Effect came out 16yrs ago and has better combat and better AI - why is it I can kill three out of four space pirates in a room and the last guy runs around looking for me for less than a minute, then gives up and goes back to chilling? "Oh I thought I heard something". It was cheesy and laughable in Skyrim, in 2023 it's trash. Uninstalled after killing the first pirate boss, I'll never revisit it. Thank god I didn't pay for it.

The writing of Mass Effect was far superior due attention to details I bet most people don't know. Try to find infrasonic noises with an app detector when indoctrinated characters shows up.

Bethesda really needs to let go of this shit engine, they need better technology in terms of how the game looks and how it plays. Had this game been a PS5 exclusive made by say Gorilla Games, just based on their technology alone I'm sure we'd have been able to take off and land, with minimized loading screens and no tiles with minimized barriers, the graphics would've been much better. In other words Bethesda needs to update alot of their studio, engine, and make an important choice to make games just for xsx and PC, and let go of xss, unfortunately the xss is the better selling of both skus, so I think MS won't allow it.

I have completed many hours 6days 13hrs in StarField and the one thing that really annoys me is the very lacking responses to questions your character has. Take example Hope Tec. One, why is a deputy left to make a massive decision for the end of this quest, shouldn’t that be the decision for the Sheriff or the Governors. Two after you made the decision the lack of dialogue when your crew mates are grilling you for an explanation, my character shouldn’t be subjected to this interrogation without have the essential response’s needed to explain there decision. Not some scripted dialogue that makes your character out to be the villain. This is only one example. Sarah says “Turn him over to the Marshal Blake” . Shame your character doesn’t get that choice and it ends in a gun fight (sorry Spoiler) . This is one of the examples I have found throughout this game. The scripted dialogue choices remind me nothing more than the lack of and the pathetic responses V has in Cyberpunk. Total let down through the whole of StarField.

It feels like they saw the issues with Skyrim, like how you were literally the head of every single major faction besides the Empire or Stormcloaks, so they took a step back, made you insignificant and subordinate, and yet gave you significant final decisions even when there are people far more qualified and educated in the room. The lack of foresight for the stories is just disappointing. Permutations are also basically non-existent; if you have already done something, have a certain trait or tag, or know something, you still have to do the legwork and any faction relations don't affect each other.

"Why can't you call people and tell them you're done?" - It's a time sink. I was thinking of this with the "lockpicking." At least in Skyrim and FO, there was some level of player "skill" and having a soft touch to not break your lock picks. As you got incrementally better, you actually had more wiggle room on easier locks, maintaining the physical gameplay aspect but making it slightly easier until simple locks could be picked in moments. Here, there's rings and improving your skill gives you access to harder locks (more rings to resolve) but there's no way to improve on the easier locks you've already been picking... and the mechanic is boring... so picking locks is just... a time sink. It extends the amount of time you spend with the game.

I kinda liked the way Starfield set up the mistery; but even if it reels you in… Mass Effect and other space exploration games kinda made a point of you, the player, being the first at SOMETHING. Whether you’re the first on a planet, or the first to explore an ancient structure, or the first to encounter a certain civilization like the geth or the reapers… You feel like you’re in an unknown place discovering something new, or being special in a way. And then there’s Starfield. Every POI is some sort of human structure, every planet has at least been touched by humans, you’re not the first to find artifacts, you’re not the only one that artifacts seem to react to, but for some reason you’re suddenly the new pet of Constellation. Just… just why.

What's funny is that I agree with a lot of points in this video but disagree with your conclusion. Oblivion still holds up today, not because of its gameplay (which is very dated) but because of its quest and world design. So many of its quests and characters are memorable and intriguing. Rarely does a quest play out as you imagined it. You'll be sent into a cave to clear out goblins only to discover that there's a lich down there, or someone's uncle backstabbed them, and they want help getting revenge. Starfield, on the other hand, lacks weight in its questlines. There's no grit or texture to the characters, their associated questlines, or the game at large. I've played some 60 hours and have yet to see anything that will stick with me. I haven't gotten my "welcome to the arena," Megaton, Caesar, or "where the hell am I?" Morrowind moment. Nothing is sticking out to me as memorable. I fear that Bethesda has lost its bite in fear of upsetting people.

The Mass Effect music was a really nice touch. I'm in agreement with you. I've played for about 3 or 4 hours, and I feel like I'm not gonna miss anything if I stop now. Hell, I've spent far more time in the weapon creation arena of Dead Space 3 than I did in this game. I think I spent 8 hours in their just trying to make my perfect guns and Starfield has me so bored that I'm ready to go back to the MW2 campaign I never finished.

3 or 4 hours? Can you kindly fuck off. That's like dipping your toe in the sea and saying "Yeah i don't think scuba diving is for me, tried it, didn't pull me in immediately." I've been playing over 200 hours and still dreaming about the game. Attention spans are just going extinct it seems.

They have needed to completely abandon their current engine for a loooong time now and we will continue to get mediocre games from them until they start from scratch with something new, but I'm not sure Todd is capable of starting over at this point.

I tried to play this game but just couldnt get into it. Loved played all Bethesda games prior to this and im just blown away by how many things are missing. The big one for me was the missing map on a planet. Like... how the eff do you miss putting in a city map?!? Its the freakin future. Ill reinstall it someday when a few quality of life patches come down.

@5:28 - no bullets in the mag, no bullet loaded into chamber. 😥Just one of myriad things wrong with this game.

Here are some of my gripes that you didn't mention: 1. The outpost system is pointless, you can beat everything in the game without it, why put it in the game? 2. Food is pointless, as the game is so easy you don't need buffs etc 3. Drugs are pointless, again as the game is so easy you don't need them, ever. 4. There is no sense of wonder, the Mantis quest was my only "Whoa!" moment in my whole playtime 5. You can't command followers to do anything, why not make it so a companion is good at security and you can ask them to pick locks so you don't feel forced into taking the perk yourself etc etc 6. New Atlantis is one of the most underwhelming, soulless and ugly starting cities in any game, and you get to visit it right at the start instead of building up to it so it just feels completely meh 7. Why the hell isn't there a favourites menu for places, so you can quickly go to cities instead of having to piss around for hours in menus just to find a vendor with credits 8. WHY TF ARENT MY QUESTS ABLE TO BE SORTED BY PLANET/AREA/CITY SO I KNOW WHERE TF THEY ARE These are just off the top of my head, so there's definitely loads more but you get the point

Does it seem like it takes place hundreds of years in the future besides the space stuff? Cyberpunk nailed the future aspect of the setting i thought.

Agree 100% with this. I quit after like 50hrs of mostly confused gameplay where I really dont have motivation or reason to do anything. Worst part for me is ship combat and ship editor. I just cant.

The Mass effect music … a space series that was truly great

i hate any game when u shoot someone in the head its not an instant kill and just a bullet sponge

Ive been playing it for 3 days now. My impressions are as follows: Great looking, fantastic interior designs, especially spaceships, laboratories, buildings,..etc Great graphics, excellent interactions with NPCs (facial expressions, voiceovers..etc) negative points so far: The game just doesnt feel like an RPG.. You cant really make your first ship special and a home. There is nothing to interact with in your ship. All you can do is fly and sit.. This is such a waste of opportunity. Companions feel completely lackluster and void of personality. At least, I just tried out one companion, a weapon specialist. No gore, no true violence.. Very mild violence. Player is too much of an errand boy, the dialogue options dont give us the option to reply as a truly scumbag like in New Vegas.. Very disappointing. Most of the time the options are so average.. NPCs/citicens feel very lackluster in cities.. Even in Skyrim NPCs felt much more alive when interacting with each other.. In Starfield, they all look very weird, a very high proportion of the NPCs are africans with caucsian hair and russian accent and chinese accent.. I think something just went wrong with the coding there.. Overall its a good game.. Otherwise I wouldnt be playing it for hours non stop.

They said in places that "the game does not have FTL communication". Ok, so, why then , if I take a kill mission in another system, and kill the target, I immediately get a popup saying "mission done, payment 3200 credits". Nothing in this game is consistent, they just make stuff up as they go along to justify whatever need they need to at the time.

My loathing for Starfield comes from the deepest part of a heart that loves BGS games. This game is.. mid AF. I'm gonna shelve it, come back in a few years when it's complete (this first DLC is obvious cut content and we all need to call Bethesda out on it) and modders have done their thing. I think it's going to be an incredible game, eventually. Right now it's just a shallow insult.

Maybe they also hate this game so they made it so bad they dont have to make a seocnd one and can just focus in ES. Like you know when you pretend to not know how to do a job ir just donit bad, so people wont ask you to do it again. Thats Starfield.

yeah the cyber punk aspect of being able to call someone you've met in the game via cell phone was so good at immersion. But it had it's limitation that while you could call someone if the dialog wasn't written you'd get voice mail. It still was a crazy feature.

For Bethseda to make something different it's going to require them to do the one thing they won't ever do, Unless Microsoft forces them. that's either building a new game engine from the ground up. or switching to a different 3rd party engine you can tell Starfield is held back by Creation Engine (2.0) which is just an updated engine from the same one that made Skyrim, it's just been updated since then.

Same engine from Morrowind, they just upgraded it for Oblivion. It needs to die. It _desperately_ wants to be taken behind the shed. But why would Bethesda do that? That would mean their -unpaid freelance developers- modders would have to learn a new engine to fix all the things Bethesda themselves couldn't be bothered with!

I think people need to realise that a lot of game developers (and companies in general) are always trying to put in the least amount of effort and take as much of your money as possible. A blank map and using AI to procedurally generate game content confirms that. Bethesda will just let modders save the game as always (cash saved)

Whats that song playing in the background in the beginning of the video? I recognize it but idk where from

I agree that starfield is a bad game. Even excluding the storyline and writing - which actually isn't bad for a Bethesda bug fest so far, which is an absolutely pleasant surprise - the bulk of the game so far is fetch quests, interspersed with loading screens, slowed down gameplay due to menu animations, and the worst overall menu system in the world which isn't consistent! Different modules for ship builder? Q and T. Different modules for hab construction? oh right! Q and T - I know this! Wait, why isn't that working? Z and C? er what? Q and T now cycles left right? which was a different combination for the ship builder? what? who designed THAT? Carry capacity and inventory management isn't fun. Vendors don't have enough credits, which just enforces running around everywhere to different vendors (probably marketed as "exploration"?). Mods will absolutely improve things, and patching might improving things too - especially related to performance on PC. Assuming that they actually release performance improvements - after Todd's SHOCKING statement that people should just "upgrade their machines". Sure, some people absolutely will have to - but even people with really good rigs are having performance issues. Todd, that's not a hardware problem, that's a programming one. I have hopes it'll get better. But my expectations are it won't. Until Todd sells it for the 4th release edition in 2027.

The issues with starfield are quite clear even within the first hour and only become more reinforced as you progress. It's not fo76 levels of failure, but it's certainly their worst singleplayer rpg to date. I HIGHLY suggest to everyone who loves rpgs to wait 6+ months, grabbing it on sale. Wait for the modding community to forge starfield into greatness, just as they have done for prior titles.

The amount of people that try and defend Starfield by saying "it gets good 15+ hours in" aren't making the point they are thinking they are... Like that's A LOT of time to sink into something (especially for $70/$100 depending on edition) before it actually becomes enjoyable. I would say virtually all games that are super memorable and timeless are interesting very early on. Even Bethesda's own great games from the past were like this. Skyrim for me is their best vanilla experience they've created. You start the game trying to avoid a motherfucking dragon. Like that's cool as fuck. But in Starfield you touch a rock... and you are given a whole ass ship, weapons, and a personal robot companion by people you don't know... If the game is so interesting, why does it take SO long to show me that it's interesting? Why does it do nothing to help steer me towards the interesting parts of the game, rather than consistently pushing me down paths that highlight the most boring and basic aspects of the gameplay loop? I think a lot of people were really hoping the best for this game and wanted a win, but just can't cope that what we got was just more of the same and Bethesda is exactly the same as these other low effort AAA studios.

They really need to make peace with the writers (writers strike) and get their products back on track. It feels like another unfinished game or perhaps a filler game once again.

Daggerfall (minus all the bullshit RNG like archers having a sword sprite and none of their loot containing a bow) and Morrowind were original in many ways and worth playing, and Arena is a guilty pleasure, but they never were truly good, they lucked out with Morrowind and have been living on borrowed unwarranted goodwill, and its run its course, Tood is wearing out his welcome and it's only gonna get worse as his ego is inflating further and further.

Andthat was not what was promised. It wasn't even nominated for game of the year. That's how fucking far Bethesda has fallen. Like honestly if you ask me as a long time ES can. And a guy who's firmly on PlayStation these days, nah. They can have it. After the shit they pulled with 76 and then selling out to Microsoft. And basically shitting the bed with starfield at this point I don't even care if I get to play ES6 because most likely it's not gonna live up to its namesake

Unless they ditched that ancient engine it's no surprise they didn't even tried to integrate whatever could be better but too much to handle for the rickety Creation Engine

Anyone that says "You need to finish a game before you can review it" is in max cope mode

well done starfield critique

Keep up the good content

The problem is they were building such a big world that no one really cared about. The crafting is worse than fallout 4, tons of the items are useless. Just too big to have any direction. Same problem I had with fallout 4, except this is supposed to be going forward, not backwards. :/

Such uninteresting environments, no water exploration, hybrid alien human species, vehicles, crime scenes, grungy mature places, eerie vibes, forensic evidence gathering, way more diverse animals/plants/landscapes, way better melee combat, stealth ability tactics, puzzles, exploring unique places, better physics damage effects, movement traversal mechanics, a array of different camera perspectives for dialogue, more mature captivating NPC, AI interaction.. the list goes on.

And what game has this?

measured and undeniably accurate

Fallout 3 was my favorite because it kept me engaged and wanting to find out more info on the main storyline while also providing a bunch of unique side stories along the way. Still on the fence if I am going to buy Starfield...

Save your money, brother. I have a 100 hours and beat damn near every quest. It never got good.

You really wonder what Bethesda has been doing since 2015, especially since almost every system in the game was already present in Fallout 4. Is Todd the only guy there?

how was performance for you? On a pretty good pc my fps felt subpar

I've heard horror stories of this game's performance on PC. It has no right running as poorly as it does given how it looks.

It runs well on my Geforce 1060, I dont even have the minimum recommended CPU. It runs at 30 fps for me on low settings.

SF gameplay is made to waste you time for analytics

Spot on. Well said. Got my thumbs up and sub. First accurate, unbiased review of this game I’ve seen yet. Not sure if they are afraid to say what they really think or getting paid.. but I lost a lot of respect for a lot of content creators over the way they dance around the fact that this game just simply isn’t good. If it wasn’t for being available through gamepass, this game’s player count would be drastically lower. They took what dozens of other games have done well over the last 20 years and somehow found a way to do all of it worse.

Playing Mass Effect Legendary edition. Wanted a break from the vanilla bland and boring npcs from Starfield. The abuse from random ass npcs infuriated me, cant even box them in the face, like shepard:) What was fund was the ship building but unless the modding community does a lot of wark that besthesta should have done, that game will be forgotten pretty soon, the quality and storytelling in mass effect was way better.

The other thing about having to travel back to quest givers is that there isn't even consistency with it. The radiant quest bounties just auto complete when the objective is done, the quest giver immediately knows you killed the guy and you get the money instantly. So it's not even a 'we don't have ftl communication in this world so you have to communicate face to face.' Even though there is mention in some quests about the slowness of communication across vast distances.

Agreed. Average at best. I'm very disappointed, but at the same time, kind of relieved. I don't expect anything good from Bethesda in the future, and now I get to focus on other (better) games. I antecipate people's interest in this game will fizzle out very soon. *EDIT* In fact, I just checked the metrics (from Steam), and BG3 has almost twice the number of concurrent players right now.

BG3 although I understand is far more interesting to play, people have no idea how dangerous this rewriting of history, and pushing woke agenda really is, NO GAME is good enough to justify acceptance of this. EVERY TIME authoritarians try go full dictator, ALWAYS starts with these exact same tactics, remove reality and replace it with an ideology, an wait for the "boomers" who resist to die off. We should have ZERO tolerance, so it sickens me people support BG3 as well. DEGENERACY at its finest.

Thank you for being honest and not following the masses. I agree with you wholeheartedly.

😂 ffs , 🤣 , by your definition I’m a dishonest sheeple for enjoying, an admittedly not perfect video game, 🤣 you ok bro?

They absolutely could do local maps for indoors, because all of their randomly generated facilities have exact same template. Abandoned oupost #1 will always be the same on every planet, same with abandoned mines or science outpost. They didn't do indoor maps cause they couldn't give less of a shit about this game, they knew if they just did bare minimum and copy/pasted Skyrim in space, the nerds would lap it up and then make video essays for next 12 years defending the game.

I kept falling alseep because of the lack of challenge. Even on very hard it was just simple. Out of fifty hours. I maybe died three times. And two of those were space ship combat.

From all of the videos I've seen, the combat is really bland

It is even after getting the powers it really doesn’t add anything to it especially when you are fighting the same exact enemies on almost every planet.

@@FlamingPanda01 Yes they do, but mass effect is the only game out of the ones you listed that can actually be compared to star field. Not only because it is a space game, but because they are both RPGs. Also how many planets on mass effect could you actually go down and explore the surface and go into bases? Not too many and yes they did have the same enemies, but that’s the story of the game. You either fight a bunch of Geth, or mercenaries that are made up of all the different alien and human races in the game. Cod you fight other humans because hey we’re on earth lol, and halo you fight the covenant, but both of these games are linear missions styled non open world games. Also I might add that the greatest of these games came out a over a decade ago, and a game as new as star field that has been in production for so long should have more then just the same enemies in my opinion.

@@FlamingPanda01 I criticize all modern games, and they are not excuses but opinions. I have been playing games for quite a long time and feel as though I am allowed to have an opinion on games and say something about them if I think they are shit. Starfield is a shit game and I’m tired of seeing people defend it whenever it is just a bland, dull, and boring game with many glitches, boring quests, boring characters, and repetitive planets and enemies. Not to mention it does have problems with modern ideologies being pushed into it, which we have all seen is a big problem as of late. Why are you trying so hard to defend Starfield? These are just opinions and if you do not like that people have them then get over it there is no need to always defend a game just because people call it shit and you think it’s not. (When in reality and not a made up fantasy land it is shit)
